Ultrathin core-sheath fibers for liposome stabilization.

Ultrathin core-sheath fibers with small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) in the core were prepared by coaxial electrospinning. SUVs/sodium hyaluranate (HA-Na)/water and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/ethanol solutions were used as core and sheath fluid in electrospinning, respectively. The ultrathin fibers were characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM) and laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM).

Controlled release of liposome-encapsulated Naproxen from core-sheath electrospun nanofibers.

Naproxen (NAP) loaded nanofibers of different structures have been successfully prepared by electrospinning. The structures of the nanofibers are NAP and cellulose acetate (CA) mixed nanofibers (NF-1), nanofibers with NAP/CA mixed core and CA sheath (NF-2), and NAP loaded liposomes and sodium hyaluronate (HA-Na) mixed core with CA sheath (NF-3). The structure and morphology of the nanofibers were characterized and the drug release behaviors were investigated.

Rapid determination of thiamine, riboflavin, niacinamide, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, folic acid and ascorbic acid in Vitamins with Minerals Tablets by high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector.

A simple, isocratic, and stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed for the rapid determination of thiamine (VB(1)), niacinamide (VB(3)), pyridoxine (VB(6)), ascorbic acid (VC), pantothenic acid (VB(5)), riboflavin (VB(2)) and folic acid (VB(9)) in Vitamins with Minerals Tablets (VMT).
